Hi, Vista's changed the log on dialogue box. You first focus to the account to which you log on, then press either enter or the space bar. This will either log you in automatically or ask you for a password. Hope this helps.

My new computer just arrived with Jaws 9 and Vista. I realized there would be some confusion and I certainly am enjoying that. I may have a few questions but first couple: When this machine goes to sleep or otherwise shuts down and I bring it back to life it doesn't seem to want to let me do anything except change user or simple access, simple access has to do with Narrator and the like. If I want to shut down it warns me that other users may be logged on and their data will be lost. There doesn't seem to be any way to log myself on and since it isn't set up to require me to log on anyway that is not relevant. Only way so far to get back running is to shut the machine down and restart it. I suppose once I find out how I can set it up never to go to sleep or what ever it is doing after some time of inactivity but that doesn't seem like a very good option either. This is an HP X300 with the fancy solid state fixed drive if that helps but I am pretty sure it is something about Vista I haven't yet figured out. Next thing more of an annoyance is how do I change the name of a computer? They have a default name and the installer gave it my wife's name but I would prefer it to be saying something else. Thanks for any help, I am sure it is all very obvious. My life is already too full of details to fill it with arcane computer details. I rather prefer hammers, their use and function is rather more obvious.
